Rub Alcohol Blues Lyrics - The Fiery Furnaces

Troubles up and down the road 

And trials all the way around 

Never knew what trouble was 

'Til my honey threw me down 

With nothing but old ragged clothes 

My heart strings broken to shreds 

Blues creeping over my body 

Queer notions flying in my head 

The easiest thing I ever done 

Was loving and drinking wine 

The hardest thing I ever done 

Was paying off a judge's fine 

I've never worked for pleasure 

Peace on earth I cannot find 

The only thing I surely own 

Is a worried and troubled mind
